Dashing in to wish my f-list a very Happy Christmas as I know I won't have a chance tomorrow. Also many thanks to yeuxdebleu, bellewood and julchen11 for the lovely Christmas cards and a special mention to ladysnaps - Gwen, you got this old lady's heart fluttering madly this morning when I received your card with the indescribably beautiful pic of you know who!!

Life has been terribly hectic over the last few weeks for various reasons and I've had far too little time to spend online. I fully intend to remedy this in the new year but in the meantime I apologise for having to dig up a pic from an entry I posted many Christmases ago. A much younger Elijah of course but oh ... there goes my heart again:D

Have a wonderful Christmas everyone and if you don't celebrate it have a lovely holiday.

i want to take this opportunity to wish you a very happy birthday on the 25th so I don't forget with all the Christmas activities. I hope you have a lovely Christmas birthday and a year of good health, good times and all the other good things life has to offer. Big, BIG hugs!

Oh, that cake is amazing!! If I owned it I'd never want to cut into it, it's much too beautiful! Thank you so much for the birthday greetings and I must apologise for taking so long to reply. After Christmas Eve I had no time at all to get online until last night and I'm still trying to catch up with everyone's kind greetings! My birthday and Boxing Day are probably the busiest days of the year for me as I always do the Christmas Dinner and the Boxing Day supper but despite that it was very enjoyable. Hope you had a great Christmas. *hugs*

You're most welcome and I hope you had a great Christmas, birthday and Boxing Day. You must be feeling back to normal if you're doing so much cooking and entertaining. That sounds like a lot of work. I'm glad you found time to see all the birthday wishes that were posted for you. There were a lot.

I hope you and Roger have a glorious year in 2015 filled with good health and good times.

Many thanks Jan and I hope you had a great Christmas. And thank you so much for the virtual birthday pressie - I agree, it would be lovely if we just lived round the corner from each other and could just pop round whenever we liked! Sorry for the delay with these thanks - things have been very hectic here over the holiday.

Many thanks Mews and don't worry, it sounds as if you have the same kind of Christmas as me where there's no chance whatever of getting online for several days, that's why it's taken me so long to reply to everyone's greetings! Despite that I did have a great birthday and I hope you had a lovely Christmas:)

I'm so glad you got the card, dear. How was your birthday - I hope your wishes will come true (but leave some for the future :-).And now we're waiting for 2015! This year will be great, I can feel it in my old bones.
